One of my most important apps. Great developer support. Thank you for creating!

Great for many years…

But I do want the sync between iOS and macOS. Can’t wait for it to materialize.

Also, wouldn’t it make sense to have a “paste clipboard to Yoink” button on its iOS keyboard?

I guess I’m just wishing to use Yoink to eliminate the need for a smooth cross-platform clipboard manager like Paste.

Great features, awful display

I really like the depth of features here: widgets, keyboards, device sync, etc. But the item display is terrible. Only 3 huge item cards on my iPhone screen!? It’s so limiting that I use one of my other shelf apps and check on yoink periodically to see if you’ve improved it. Please, please provide display options across all device and ui types. Ideally I’d like configurability so I can have a minimalist compact display of thumbnail and 2 line summary on iPhone and the widgets (no row padding… maximize screen items!), and larger cards on keyboards and iPad/Mac displays. But let me choose!
